The Wayne County Prosecutor's Office has filed charges against a Westland man accused of killing his roommate over the weekend.

Jovica Nikoloski, 22, is expected to be charged with first-degree murder sometime Monday in Westland's 18th District Court, according to a news release from the prosecutor's office. Prosecutors said they expected Nikoloski would be arraigned Tuesday morning.

Nikoloski is accused of killing his roommate, 25-year-old Spase Grazhdani, during an altercation that took place Saturday. Westland police say they were called Saturday morning to the residence in the 6500 block of Yale. When officers arrived, they discovered Grazhdani dead.

Prosecutors say Nikoloski stabbed the victim several times with an object. He was then arrested and taken into custody.

If convicted, Nikoloski faces up to life in prison.
